Great service today. I had a leaking toilet valve (wall) and it was disconnected to the toilet fill valve. Leak was filling up a small/medium container every 15 minutes. I talked to Don around 5 pm and he came over around 6 pm. He fixed my issue fairly quickly and made sure everything was working well. Fantastic service and I highly recommend this company! read more

Really gone downhill since son took over. Have used Gary's twice - the first time the father did the work, and while a little expensive, did a very thorough job and highly experienced. However, the second time, the son had taken over and was inexperienced at that time - 2015, but has bothered me all this time! He had to call his dad to figure out what to do - no problem with that but I got charged for all his time. Ended up decent work but WAY overcharged - over $500 for replacing a shower drain from the basement. read more

Can't say enough about Gary. Had to call him in on a different project. Responsive & fair. Great service & cares about his customer.

We had a plumbing stoppage and a failed garbage disposal. Tried going through my Home Warranty, but they couldn't find a tech to help me in any reasonable amount of time. I called numerous plumbing companies, but getting anyone to me in less than a week (or more) was next to impossible. After a full 8 days with no use of our kitchen sink, my warranty company finally agreed to let me go out of network. But then came my next problem.... No one wants to go out of their way to do the extra steps it takes for home warranty reimbursement. It's a call and a detailed invoice. That's it. But nobody wanted to do it, which means I would have been all out of pocket. Then enter Gary's Plumbing. Donald was thorough during our first call and upfront about his fees for labor and parts. I knew I'd be paying out of pocket initially, but at least I had an idea of what to expect. Not only that, but Donald was able to provide service the very same day. He was patient with the warranty company as they asked him numerous questions about the claim. I know it was a hassle, but Donald was so sincere and genuine. I could tell that he had his customer's best interest in mind. And in the service industry, that's just hard to find these days. Donald resolved my problems, gave me some tips for the future, and even pointed out another potential issue I might want to look out for soon. He didn't try to upsell me, he just brought a potential future problem to my attention. I would recommend Gary's Plumbing, and Donald, specifically, to anyone needing plumbing service. Way to go, Donald! read more

This should be negative stars. If you are looking for a plumber, pass this guy. You do not want to get into serious trouble with this Gary. He just makes matters worse and will not pay for his screw ups.. read more

Gary's Plumbing is my go-to plumber. Although more expensive than most ($260 for the first drain snaked), it's better to get it done right the first time. I never have trouble with Gary's Plumbing. The owner is reliable, responsive, and trustworthy. He explains everything and is willing to educate you about fixes you can do yourself if you prefer to save $. I highly recommend Gary's Plumbing. read more

As a board member for a local private school we had an emergency hot water heater issue that needed remedy ASAP. Additionally, we needed a new fixtures for our commercial kitchen faucet. Donald responded quickly and resolved our issue with plenty of communication in between. Their prices were fair and his work is exceptional. Highly recommend! read more

Thank you for the quick response and being so upfront about appointment availability and keeping me informed the whole time. Came out and took care of the clog. Explaining the process and the result! My mom has always used you and the trend will continue. read more

Tony came out to help me with a kitchen leak. He was professional and did a great job. He explained the problem to me, fixed the leak, double then triple checked everything. I highly recommend Gary and his staff. Gary called me to give me updates and worked with me and my schedule. I'd use them again. read more

We received the best service from this company! We had several other top name plumbing companies come out to our office prior to calling Gary's, and none of them could find our water shutoff. They told us to give them a call back when we were able to locate it and they would be able to fix our problem. Gary's sent Donald out, and he went above and beyond to find our water shut off and found it! Amazing customer service, we will be using Gary's Plumbing from now on. read more

I'm well pleased with this company, 1. I called them at 2:30pm and they came to my residence by 5:00pm. They called me 1/2 hour before they were on their way. 2. Donald the plumber was very professional, he snaked the line many times until he was able to clear the drain... He didn't stop just there, he decided to snaked the line a second time with a bigger cutter to make sure that there were boing to be no more issues. 3. He advices for me to follow some steps to avoid bigger expenses in the future, he gave me a reason why these steps are important and how to avoid clogs in the drain. 4. He showed concern for my house and for my money, unlike someone else would've just done a quick fix and not worry about what will happen after he was done. 5. This plumber was very professional. I will recommend his business and this is why I give his business 5 stars review. read more

I had a clog in my main sewer line and everything was backing up. I called and the technician was here in 15 minutes, worked quickly and had the line clear in under an hour! Very satisfied with the service and would definitely recommend them. I know who call next time! read more

Called Gary's Plumbing based on yelp and was not disappointed. He was so efficient and helpful and honest. Toilet and sink had not been replaced in 35years and he tore out and re-installed new toilet and vanity. Price was very very reasonable and I would highly recommend him. read more

If you want an honest and fair plumber who isn't afraid of the dark, look no further because Gary is the service for you. He kept in touch so I wasn't left hanging wondering if he'd show, and he works late so coming at 9:30 p.m. to fix my issue was no problem for him. He didn't try to okey doke me into paying extra for things I didn't need and he explained plainly and clearly what the issue was, and how he fixed it. He even drew me a diagram. Now that my Mr. Fixit moved up to Sac. Garys is the only service I'll be calling for my plumbing needs in the future. I couldn't be more satisfied. read more

Hired Gary to fix a leaky pipe under my house. He was on time, quick and friendly. He had given me a quote and didn't exceed it. Very pleased and will use him again in the future. read more

5 Stars. I have owned a home for quite some time and have rental properties as well. I have used Gary multiple times at each residence and have always been more than happy with his expertise and service. He just got done replacing a wax gasket on a toilet in the master bathroom. Gary is a great man who takes pride in what he does. He's been at this for over 30 years and there has never been a plumbing issue he has not been able to fix. He is not the cheapest guy you will find, BUT, he is far from the most expensive. In life you have to weigh the benefits of the job provided with the cost associated (smart people do this). His price is very respectable and charges less than what you will be quoted from other big name plumbing companies. He is not going to kiss your rear end and speak baby talk to you on a service call, if you want that then you should think about growing up a little bit because the world is not going to be nice to you. Not sure what happened with Jan and her situation, but Gary is a very respectable buy who will do right by you and more than anything do a great job. He's fast, efficient, and business oriented. As someone who owns multiple rentals, and uses this man exclusively for plumbing problems, I would vouch for his work any day of the week and twice on Sunday. read more

Called on a Saturday when they were busy and they still made the effort to come out. The technician came out, was polite, competent, and got the work done. Will not hesitate to use them again. read more

I meant to write this review a couple of months ago but am just now getting around to it since we had a couple separate issues we needed checked out--which of course we called Gary's Plumbing for again. So a couple of months ago our water heater's pilot light constantly went out and so Gary and his son came out to fix it and it was good as new as soon as they were done! Professional, courteous, knowledgable and skilled. Price was reasonable and the work was done quickly and efficiently. As for the issues we called him for this time--we had a couple of toilets that would overflow a lot, two sinks and a shower that wouldn't drain. Gary came over and took care of all of those issues, replaced a few parts and was on his way in just an hour. Second time that we've had a great experience with him. Would definitely recommend--can't stress that enough! Great guy and great service! read more

Great customer service. Donald was prompt, efficient, and very personable. We've never had to call a plumber before but I know who we will call should the need arise again. Professional, courteous, and very informative. Thank you, Gary's Plumbing for a job well done. read more

Great customer service! Knowledgeable technicians who called us back on a weekend! They moved quickly through the problem at hand and were also informative on preventative maintenance for our plumbing needs. We highly recommend! read more

Great experience with this business well knowledgeable plumber with excellent fair price. We will be calling him back. Thank you again for all your help. read more

So thankful Donald and his coworker came last night. they were very professional, wore full respirators when near me. solved flooding issue in my back yard that has been going on for over a month with literally 5 other people failed to find the leak (it was admittedly hard to find). was about $150 per hour plus parts. read more

Donald came out to our church and did a wonderful job not only rootering out our lines but repairing a sink. Even though we are out in the Ranchos he still offered our church a discount! Thank you for your amazing professional service we will be using you for all our plumbing needs. God bless you! read more

I would like to thank Gary's plumbing for doing such a thorough job in my sewer problem I had a couple of days ago. They kept in contact with me to let me know they were on their way. They took care of the problem without messing around. I'm glad I made the call to them for my problem with a price I could afford. Thank you for your services and I will definitely recommend you to others read more

Very unprofessional & rude with a very bad attitude just because I asked him to call me( the owner of the property) to get authorization before he does repair when I received bill with additional part put on toilet which actually should have been fixed the first time it was only $20 but I didn't know about it I didn't expect to get my head bit off and such a negative reaction read more

I would highly recommend this group!! He was friendly and knew what he was doing - and didn't charge an arm and a leg to get it done!! I will use them again! read more

Tony was fabulous....He came out to fixed our water heater. He was professional and explained everything. I had same day service which was great cause I was not about to take a cold shower! Thank you Tony read more

I was left feeling frustrated by the company my home warranty sent out, after getting my claim denied and an outrageous quote, I looked online and saw the reviews for Gary's so I gave him a call. Immediately my mind was put at ease because I could tell he understood the urgency of my plumbing issues. He was able to come out the same day and diagnose and fix the problem. Everything was explained in a manner I was able to understand and he also gave us tips on how to prevent problems in the future. I was so grateful the problem was fixed in a timely manner and at a reasonable price. I highly recommend Gary's Plumbing for their reliability, and integrity. read more

Very unpleasant man.... 0 stars if I was possible ...I was having trouble with my water heater and after all the reviews here I decided to give Gary a call and asked him if he could come check it out ....that was at 11am after he said yes I waited almost all day and at 7pm I called another plumbing agency because I needed my water heater fixed and they came in less than 30 mins fixed it and left .... Gary calls me at 10pm and says he is coming to my home... I explained to him that I had hired someone else and the problem was fixed and he got upset started yelling at me about canceling appointment like if his time is more important than mine I told him I thought he wasn't coming and forgot about me because I called him 11 hrs ago. He just kept getting more upset very unprofessional so I told him to lose my number and that I didn't need his services anymore There is no way I will ever call him again I don't care how many good reviews he has read more

Wow! After reading the great reviews, I decided to give them a call - we had a clog somewhere in our main from the house out to the street. Gary was rude, and was very condescending while talking to me and my husband. My husband snapped at him in that he was taking the snake out of our line and had it flopping all over the yard and sidewalk, and told him he was "flinging" all that sewer everywhere, to include almost splattering some of that on us. He kept going on and on about him being a fellow Veteran (he started talking to my husband since he is a Veteran as well). It was a little weird when he suggested having a wastebasket and placing any and all toilet paper in it rather than flushing it down the toilet. He said, "You may have to learn to live with the smell though." Apparently another gentleman showed up, and it turns out it is Gary's son. It was very annoying to see the two of them bicker back and forth. Needless to say, we will definitely not be calling them back. WOW! Between your post here, and the private messages from you and your dad, it has accomplished two things: But before we get into those two things, you need to understand that statistically, if only 86% of the reviews here have given you 5 stars, then maybe that is your business model - that you serve to please roughly 90%. Understand also that this is a venue for "us" the consumers. It allows us a place to post our personal/individual experiences with a vendor. Lastly, it allows us to do this with a degree of anonymity. Why is anonymity important? Because you as the vendor never know who you are going to be providing goods and/or services to. It forces you to be cognizant of what you are doing at all times, and that "one" customer where you decide to not give it 100% may just be the one to post a critical review. But seriously, do not take this personally, it is just business. Use it to learn from; use it to strive and do better. Back to what your response and private messages (which illustrates what I was referring to in my original review) accomplishes: 1) The validity of my original review. The tone in your responses further illustrates that. 2) It further questions your integrity. Go back to some of the other posts that were not favorable...learn from those. There was one written in 2013 that gave you 4 stars. Read his comments - that again validates what was mentioned in our review. Also, look at the one from this past March. For almost 40 years you have been in business. Although that is impressive, you should not be "cocky" (as the gentleman in 2013 posted), you should know better. You should strive to do better than just 86-90%. Want a rating of 5 starts? Again, you will have to earn that. My husband feels we should call you back out on our next emergency. When that happens, we'll update our rating if warranted. As for the refund, we really don't need our money back...we just need you to live up to your own hype. Best of luck to you. read more

Everything you hope for when you call the plumber- great work, honest and trustworthy. We've had Gary and his son Donald out for two separate calls and they were both great and you can be confident the job is going to be done right. If they can't answer your call, they will call back as soon as they can to give you a time estimate and call again when they're at the stop before your house. Highly recommend! read more

Gary has replaced my water heater, fixed an outdoor and indoor faucet. Very nice man, good work. Would highly recommend him. Laurie read more

Any reason I have to give this guy fewer than 5 stars is absolutely not his fault. A hose on our water heater broke and we were out of hot water. Called around 6PM and unfortunately, he had just left our side of town. He called us back around 1045PM after he finished with another client and let us know that after midnight, service charges double and that they're closed on Sunday. I still opted to have him come out that night, he got to our house around 1115PM and fixed it by 1145PM. The total bill was only $130 as well. Mind you, we live in an old house and our water heater was outside in the dark, and he still managed to get things fixed that quickly, and then gave us some advice so we wouldn't have to have him back too quickly. He was polite and efficient, I could tell that he didn't want to work past midnight and charge us extra too. :) read more

This was my first plumbing experience and it exceeded my expectations. My kitchen sink was a hot mess and was afraid of the damages. Donald thoroughly explained what happened and how to prevent future issues. Thank you for making this a really good experience. read more

Being told by a competitor that he needed to excavate and quoted 1400.00 I turned to yelp where I saw the reviews for Gary plumbing. He came the same day fixed the problem in less than a hour for only 100.00, and he was a nice guy too. I'll call him again. read more

Thank you ! Thank you Gary and son! This is the second time you gave come to my rescue,in the past 3 months. I never thought I would have been as happy to see two people in my life. During the summer Gary and his son came out to fix a shower that was an endless swamp. Within minutes they not only fixed it but went around to make sure all the other showers were working as well. Tonight my husband out dog food down the toilet and created a natural disaster. I gave Gary a call and within 2 hours he was here at 9 pm and fixed it in 5 minutes. It's an added bonus that this Father and Son partnership are the nicest guys ever. I would give them 10 stars if I could. read more

Twice now I've thought I had a major plumbing issue on my hands. Donald comes over, identifies the problem in ridiculously short order, resolves it faster than I could anticipate, and then gives me tips on how to manage it myself the next time I have a similar issue. I really couldn't be more pleased with the service. read more

Called late in the afternoon and I was able to get on the same day schedule. Donald was very polite on the phone and told me I would get a call before service tech arrived which I did. Gary himself showed up on site, extremely professional and hard working man. Solved my clogged shower drain and was kind and communicated very well. Highly recommend and I was very impressed with their quality of service and repair. Thank you for clearing my shower drain. read more

The business is just him and his pops. That's what he told me anyways. Received service same day I called. Should have just called them when toilet issues first came about because I wasted half a day trying to figure out what it was. Found out my son plugged the toilet with his wooden blocks. He got the job done and gave me lots of helpful advise about toilets and sewage system. Happy customer. Thanks. read more
